Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a polyimide resin.
  • a polyimide resin is a useful engineering plastic that has high thermal stability, high strength and high solvent resistance due to rigidity, resonance stabilization and firm chemical bond of the molecular chain thereof, and is being applied to a wide range of fields.
  • a polyimide resin having crystallinity is further enhanced in the heat resistance, the strength and the chemical resistance thereof, and thus is expected for applications as alternatives of metals or the like.
  • Vespel registered trademark
  • PTL 1 polyimide molding material
  • This resin is difficult to process by molding due to its very low flowability even at a high temperature, and is also disadvantageous in terms of cost because it requires molding under conditions of a high temperature and a high pressure for a prolonged period of time.
  • a resin having a melting point and flowability at a high temperature such as a crystalline resin, may be processed by molding easily and inexpensively.
  • thermoplastic polyimide resin having thermoplasticity has been reported in recent years.
  • thermoplastic polyimide resin is excellent in molding processability in addition to the original heat resistance of the polyimide resin.
  • the thermoplastic polyimide resin is therefore applicable to a molded article for use in an inhospitable environment to which nylon or polyester, a general purpose thermoplastic resin, is inapplicable.
  • a polyimide resin generally has no melting point below the decomposition temperature because of its rigid structure.
  • Aurum registered trademark
  • the material is a rigid wholly aromatic polyimide resin but succeeds to have a melting point, which is generally difficult to be observed, at a temperature lower than the decomposition temperature by introducing plural flexible ether bonds and meta structures into the structure. Also, in light of its glass transition temperature as very high as 250°C, it can be said that the resin is excellent in heat resistance.
  • a method using a long linear aliphatic diamine as a raw material diamine is one of the methods for improving the molding processability of the polyimide resin, i.e., the methods for decreasing the melting point of the polyimide resin (NPL 2). This reduces the rigidity of the polyimide, and thus also decreases the melting point.
  • This method might decrease the glass transition temperature along with the decrease of the melting point, and in particular, might reduce the strength at a high temperature.
  • Another problem of this method is difficult synthesis of a polyimide resin using a raw material diamine composed mainly of an aliphatic diamine.
  • PTL 3 relates to a polyimide resin composition being obtained by reacting at least one diamine with at least one acid dianhydride in an organic solvent, which contains 5-200 pts. wt of an elastomer having a specific molecular weight.
  • Aurum is a wholly aromatic polyimide, and thus exhibits high flame resistance at a V-0 level in the UL94 standards.
  • Aurum is limited by an available apparatus because this resin has a high melting point and requires a molding temperature of generally 400°C or more.
  • the present inventors have found that the aforementioned objects can be attained by a polyimide resin containing particular repeating units at a particular ratio.
  • the present invention provides a polyimide resin containing a repeating structural unit represented by the following formula (1), a repeating structural unit represented by the following formula (2), and a repeating structural unit represented by the following formula (A) or a repeating structural unit represented by the following formula (B), a content ratio of the repeating structural unit of formula (1) with respect to the total of the repeating structural unit of formula (1) and the repeating structural unit of formula (2) being from 40 to 70 mol%, and a content ratio of the repeating structural unit of formula (A) or the repeating structural unit of formula (B) with respect to the total of the repeating structural unit of formula (1) and the repeating structural unit of formula (2) being more than 0 mol% and 25 mol% or less: wherein R 1 represents a divalent group having from 6 to 22 carbon atoms containing at least one alicyclic hydrocarbon structure; R 2 represents a divalent chain aliphatic group having from 5 to 20 carbon atoms; R a represents a divalent group containing at least one aromatic ring which
  • a polyimide resin that is capable of being easily processed by molding and prepared into a molded article excellent in heat resistance may be provided. Also, a polyimide resin that is capable of being prepared into a molded article excellent in low colorability or flame resistance in addition to this property may be provided.
  • the polyimide resin of the present invention contains a repeating structural unit represented by the following formula (1), a repeating structural unit represented by the following formula (2), and a repeating structural unit represented by the following formula (A) or a repeating structural unit represented by the following formula (B), the content ratio of the repeating structural unit of formula (1) with respect to the total of the repeating structural unit of formula (1) and the repeating structural unit of formula (2) is from 40 to 70 mol%, and the content ratio of the repeating structural unit of formula (A) or the repeating structural unit of formula (B) with respect to the total of the repeating structural unit of formula (1) and the repeating structural unit of formula (2) is more than 0 mol% and 25 mol% or less: wherein R 1 represents a divalent group having from 6 to 22 carbon atoms containing at least one alicyclic hydrocarbon structure; R 2 represents a divalent chain aliphatic group having from 5 to 20 carbon atoms; R a represents a divalent group containing at least one aromatic ring which is bonded to a
  • the polyimide resin of the present invention contains a repeating structural unit represented by the formula (1) and a repeating structural unit represented by the formula (2), and the content ratio of the repeating structural unit of formula (1) with respect to the total of the repeating structural unit of formula (1) and the repeating structural unit of formula (2) is from 40 to 70 mol%.
  • the polyimide resin contains such particular plural kinds of polyimide structural units combined at a particular ratio, and thus has a peculiar capability, a low melting point of 360°C or less and, for example, a high glass transition temperature of 170°C or more (preferably 200°C or more).
  • the polyimide resin has a large crystallization rate with a crystallization half-time of 60 seconds or less. Thus, a resin that possesses both molding processability and high heat resistance is obtained, unlike use of general polyimide lacking thermoplasticity or thermoplastic resins having a low glass transition temperature.
  • the polyimide resin of the present invention is excellent in molding processability, and thus also has the advantage that various additives may be added thereto during its heat melting.
  • the content ratio of the repeating structural unit of formula (A) with respect to the total of the repeating structural unit of formula (1) and the repeating structural unit of formula (2) is more than 0 mol% and 25 mol% or less.
